Chapter 1
The weather is clear, the sun is slipping through the leaves and the light from it is dazzling.
In the bustling area of the city center, pedestrians hurry by.
In an inconspicuous corner, a s.h.i.+nning light is quietly interwoven converging into a human form, and quickly filled out to become real and complete, finally becoming the same as ordinary people.
The teenager who appeared out of thin air stood at the corner of the street, carrying a bag on his back and wearing a pair of gla.s.ses. Merging into the crowd without a trace, he turned into the door of a five-star hotel.
According to the information provided by the system, his mission goal is waiting for him here.
The floor of the YinXing hotel is clean and spotless. A holographic star map projection is suspended in the center of the lobby. The ornaments on all sides are exquisite and elegant, and the flowers and trees are also rare treasures.
"Host, this is the most luxurious hotel on planet Galileo, our first mission is really good!" Looking at the layout of the lobby in detail, Lu Zhiguang walked a few steps forward, and the cheerful mechanical sound suddenly sounded in his mind.
The system was just brought in, its first time to come out to perform a task everything it sees is new for it. Lu Zhiguang smiled and slightly adjusted the amulet hung on a red cord around his neck, allowing it to have a wider field of vision: "Not necessarily, do we have the introduction to this character yet?"
Strictly speaking, he is not really a host, nor a plot person, but a staff member who specializes in fixing bugs in the system.
Just fifteen minutes ago, Lu Zhiguang was still at home reviewing and preparing for the Civil Servants system reform test. He was rescued from the towering mountain of test prep by an emergency recall. He then came to this world to deal with some complicated emergencies.
The main system promised that as long as the task is successfully completed, the test can be pa.s.sed without examination. Under the encouragement of being able to get rid of the sea of questions, Lu Zhiguang did not hesitate to take over this urgent overtime task.
Due to the recent severe crackdown in the system world, according to the newly released Law on the Protection of Cannon Fodder Rights, when the cannon fodder is found to be too tragic, it will be handled in a high-trial world. But each world's plot line has been fixed, and without additional intervention, those characters cla.s.sified as cannon fodder can only go to their destined end.
The number of staff is limited, and Lu Zhiguang has a dangerous task. While maintaining the original plot, he must find ways to integrate into the plot line and force the innocent cannon fodders that are scheduled to be sacrificed to change their original destiny.
The existing characters and plots are too limited. In order to allow him to give full play to his own strengths, the main system will generate a character that did not originally exist in the world every time, and then he will naturally enter into the plot. All the characteristics, personality, and trends of the new characters are completely decided by him.
It's difficult to connect to the high-level world data, and the ident.i.ty and plot are still loading. Based on past experience, such a favorable start is likely to hide an unexpected turn, and it is not the time to relax vigilance.
Upon hearing his inquiry, the system immediately turned on the query mode.
The buffering image only cycled through twice and a figure in a blazer and trousers has already come on the road, standing in front of Lu Zhiguang, and looking him up and down asked: "Lu Zhiguang?"
When he heard the name he used at work, Lu Zhiguang showed a friendly smile and reached out to him: "h.e.l.lo, I'm–"
"How come you're so late? Mr. Gu has been waiting for you for a long time, come with me quickly." The man interrupted his words, grabbed his arm and dragged him to the VIP pa.s.sage, his hurried voice pressed to a low volume.
"I am Mr. Gu's secretary, surnamed Geng. Did the people you signed the agreement with explain the nurturing contract with you? As long as you obey Mr. Gu, in addition to the money given to them, there will be no less for you….…"
Lu Zhiguang was slightly taken aback by his words and so his action was a little hesitant. According to the instructions of his superior, he only needs to follow the beginning of the story, and find ways to save the fate of the target cannon fodder under the premise of guaranteeing the main plot line. Once you encounter force majeure, you can also try taking the bullet for the other party. As long as the target person is protected, the task is completed.
However, the superior did not indicate that he was responsible for selling his body while he was selling his life.
When he noticed his slowed movement, the secretary glanced at him in a semi-threatening manner, and his pulling force suddenly increased, dragging him into a room covered in carpets and dotted with candles.
With a bang, the door was directly closed and locked, and the footsteps hurried away.
The temperature in the house is a bit high, the carpet is thick and soft, the lighting is soft
Lu Zhiguang: "…"
system:"……"
The system, trembling, sounded off the alarm for a security threat.
The whistle that suddenly sounded was dizzying. Lu Zhiguang paused and touched the amulet hung around his neck, turned it a half circle to minimize the volume: "Don't worry, look around first."
When the host is not in a hurry, the system is worried. It quickly loaded the red alert package and began looking over the tutorial for special case emergency situations. The front page of the tutorial filled the screen.
So far they've only heard of a nurturing contract, the other party hasn't even confirmed it yet, so it's not necessarily dangerous.
Since he was sent to the world, it shows that the world has a tragic cannon fodder, and only one can help him change his destiny. This is a very important task.
Lu Zhiguang did not intend to give up, but still, seeing how the first encounter had such explosive settings, he decided to first plan out an escape route in case of emergency.
Putting down the bag on his shoulder, Lu Zhiguang walked across the soft carpet and over to the window. Supporting himself with one hand he slid open the narrow outer window and leaned half way out to get a better look.
The hotel room is on the 11th floor and the height is somewhat high. If you use the drainage pipe extended along the exterior wall, he can probably attempt it without using a plug-in.
Lu Zhiguang pulled the exquisitely carved window bar to one side and drilled his head out through the guardrail to see a few hidden places he could borrow in case of escape.
The amulet around his neck was pulled out and swayed out on the red cord. Although it was adjusted to the lowest volume, he heard the system panic crying in his mind. Realizing his negligence, Lu Zhiguang released his hand and stuffed the amulet into his s.h.i.+rt collar. He was about to open his mouth and suddenly a sound was heard from the door. As Lu Zhiguang watched, the anti-theft door was opened from the outside.
"Be careful!"
The person who opened the door was a man in a three-piece suit. When he saw the situation in front of him, the man's pupils instantly contracted. Immediately slamming into the door and running over he grabbed the shoulder and arm of the teenager who was almost hanging on the window and dragged him into his arms.
The hold on his arm and shoulders was very solid. Lu Zhiguang completely let go of the window and with a half flip he returned back to the ground using the man's firm hold to balance himself.
Even wearing a three-piece suit known as the stereotypical uniform of the dull, the man still looked young definitely no more than thirty years old. The st.u.r.dy strength is crouching under the seemingly ordinary business suit, a handsome look with deep-set eyes. The look in his eyes is clear and sharp.
An alert sounded in his mind, the person in front of him was his task object. The commercial giant of the planet Galileo, Gu's family, Gu Yuan.
Lu Zhiguang, who was fixed in placed, looked up at the man with a cold face in front of him thinking about a reasonable explanation for jumping out the window.
Not waiting for an explanation, Gu Yuan raised his hand to the top of Lu Zhiguang's head, leaned over and pressed down, his tone of voice was unexpectedly slow: "What did they say to you, did they scare you?"
The target person is better looking than 85 percent of other task objects. Lu Zhiguang looked up at the other person's gaze and blinked his eyes. "No, nothing, it's just too stuffy in the house, I wanted some fresh air."
So not only jumped on the window sill, but also almost directly drilled out of the guardrail.
Riight.
"I won't do anything to you, don't be afraid." Gu Yuan said, with slightly raised eyebrows. Closing the window he pulled the teenager to sit on the sofa, handing him an electronic screen.
"If you want to eat anything you can just choose whatever you want. Just ask them to come in within half an hour. After that I will open the electronic s.h.i.+eld, and I won't let people come in after that."
As he was speaking, he had one-handedly untied his tie and unb.u.t.toned his suit jacket. Putting the tie and jacket on the back of a chair he walked toward the bathroom, already getting ready to take a shower.
The time left for them was only half an hour. The system was desperately shaking the alarm bell, but the eyes of the Lu Zhiguang fell on the light screen in his hand. Scanning the electronic menu from top to bottom, he ordered a few delicious dishes that seemed attractive.
The service of the five-star hotel was very thoughtful. After only ten minutes, there was a special dining car to bring the food and snacks up.
Galileo is famous for its wealth and richness. It not only has unique minerals, but also has abundant natural food resources. There are many ingredients and seasonings that couldn't be seen on the earth. The dishes that were sent were well cooked and savory, and the dim sum was made exquisite and lovely.
Before Lu Zhiguang was dispatched he hadn't had a chance to eat. It was just time to be hungry. The food was placed on the table in turn, and the ingredients and cooking materials were meticulously recorded into the system. After that the chopsticks were taken up, and the meal was slowly enjoyed.
The first time in it's memory that it was turned on, it became a system with more than a dozen recipes:…QAQ
The meat drenched in the broth is fresh and delicious, the simple stir-fried vegetables are fragrant, the fish cake is fried to a golden crisp, and the star rice is crystal clear.
Lu Zhiguang was full and satisfied. He drank a two-vegetable juice from the special liqueur, and took a napkin to wipe the lips.
Precisely half an hour pa.s.sed.
The sounds in the bathroom stopped, the door was pushed open, and the first rush of steam dispersed.
Gu Yuan followed the sound. He had changed into lounge wear, a towel resting on the back of his neck. He raised his hand to open the electronic s.h.i.+eld, and walked slowly toward Lu Zhiguang.
The neckline of the man's s.h.i.+rt was slightly open, revealing strong muscle lines. A few drops of water fall down from the hair, and running along the healthy wheat-colored skin is drilled into the collar, leaving a deep trace.
The system trembled ringing a small bell, reminding the host to protect itself. Lu Zhiguang thought about it, but although respecting the system's opinions he felt in his pocket and took out a piece of toffee and handed it over.
Gu Yuan, stopped, and squinted at him.
The teenager sitting at the table looked clean, as pure and clear as obsidian. The facial features are soft and delicate, and the figure is not yet tall. Looking at him, it is only a young student.
The hand that stretched out toward him was flattened, and on the palm was lying a piece of candy, and it seemed to be for himself.
He hasn't touched these things that only little children eat for a long time. He wanted to refuse it, but meeting the look in those s.h.i.+ning black eyes he lifted his hand up and thought, why not have a little snack and took the candy.
The teenager in front of him seems to be not afraid of him at all. Seeing that he took the candy, his eyebrows raised happily, and his lips parted into a nice smile.
Gu Yuan slightly raised his eyebrows, holding the back of the chair and leaning forward, his voice was slightly lower: "Are you afraid of me?"
Lu Zhiguang took back his hand and shook his head gently. In the prediction and perception of danger, he has an intuition far beyond that of ordinary people, but in Gu Yuan's body, he did not feel the need to raise his vigilance.
Now you're so courageous, I don't know who it was that was just about to jump out of the window earlier. A faint smile crossed Gu Yuan's face and he stood up. He still stood there looking down at him and asked: "Did you bring a bag?"
Lu Zhiguang nodded and leaning over picked his bag up. Gu Yuan seems to be very satisfied with his obedience, slightly nodded his head, and continued to command: "Open it."
Hearing his voice, the system is even more nervous: "The host, the bag must have [-], you can never bring it out!"
Lu Zhiguang didn't understand, so he grabbed the bag and responded to it in his mind: "What is in it?"
……
Is it still homework?
Of course it is a gadget for doing that kind of thing!
It tried so hard, but the main brain was so powerful that even this concealed non-harmonious statement was recognized and s.h.i.+elded by it.
The system was almost incoherent and was trying to warn his simple host, but Lu Zhiguang already put his hand in to the bag.
Then he pulled a set of practice exercises out..
System:"……"
Lu Zhiguang: "…"
Gu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, took over several of the exercise books and flipped them open, spreading them on the table, and turned the light up: "Okay, do your homework."
The author has something to say: #……#
#Big imagination#
This translator has something to say too: Here ends chapter 1, if anything is unclear or you have any suggestions, let me know! I'm not fluent in Chinese and I can certainly use all the help I can get.
System is so cute, and I was as nervous as it the first time I read this chapter!
